Salary Cap: Pen Salary Cap: Dr StrangeDubas "Sir, you can't let him in here. He'll see everything. He'll see the big board!"

[Turin]

Let's say Karlsson came at 8 mil. We'd have 1.9M to sign someone and stay compliant even after Jake returns.
Actually make that 2.7M, because if we got a Forward for example, another would get buried in Wilkes in his stead.
There'd be enough for Tatar potentially...

Might have to take some salary back in Petry deal. Dunno tho

 

[Trade]

I wonder if we are taking back bad cap from Montreal to make it happen.

Hoffman, Dvorak, Armia all options.

Seems unlikely Petry goes to Montreal tho.

Josh Anderson?

To be fair, Shang doesn't seem certain at all Petry is going to Montreal.



ITS HAPPENING LADS

The more I think on this, the more I want Dubas to add whatever needed to Petry to get Dvorak here. He'd be a fantastic 3C for us.

 

[pensfan71]

There's no way he gets sent back to MTL, is it possible they retain salary on him for somewhere else?

LETS f***ING GOOOO

Well Montreal is an interesting destination for Petry but honestly, with Hoffman, Armia, or even Dvorak, we could see Petry out for one of them.

With Jake out, Petry for Hoffman (with maybe a pick from us to get him at 50%) makes a bit of sense.

Hoffman-Sid-Rakell
Smith-Malkin-Rust

then

Jake-Sid-Rakell
Smith-Malkin-Rust
Hoffman-Eller-Accari

Something like that? Not that farfetched given Jake's recent surgery.

As much as the idea of Karlsson in, Granlund out has me elated, Mike Hoffman as our new 1LW would be the worst way to bring me down to earth

Sid and Karlsson will be BEAUTIFUL to witness!

 

[Extra Texture]

OMG, this is really happening, isnt it.

 

[xlm34]

Hell yeah Dubas. At least this year will be fun to watch.

 

[Gurglesons]

Fun to see what this trade ends up being lol

Sweep up! Get the banner ready! Gurgs, come your hair! Jobey, take your meds! Cole, fire up the BBQ! Emp, get the beer!

Let's do this boys!

Petry for Hoffman, Armia, or Dvorak just makes a ton of sense really...I might be shocked if it's not that.

 

[Zbynek]

Doobler the MADMAN

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I genuinely laughed like Jake from Adventure Time when Friedman and Seravalli confirmed it, and the third team is Montreal, so Petry's going back to the team he desperately clawed out of.

Also, god I hope Marty St. Louis puts together a Matheson-Petry pairing for a few shits for shits and giggles.

 

[PensandCaps]

No he wouldn't. Overpaid and mediocre.

Better than Eller atleast.

 

[Zbynek]

Wasn't it Hoffman who had some weird drama with Karlsson's wife? Or am i confusing him with someone else? Would be strange to swing both those guys. For what its worth, i dont want Hoffman in the slightest. Rather pay Montreal with futures

 

[PensandCaps]

You know what's really funny, is that there was a MTL fan on the main boards insistent that Petry was unmovable lol.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Before we all collectively celebrate, let's wait to see who blinked; Grier or Dubas.

For all we know this could be like Petry + 1st to Montreal, Granlund + 1st + Yager/Pickering to SJ, Karlsson at nothing retained coming here.

Yeah, I don’t think those two should be reunited after that situation!

 

[Extra Texture]

I genuinely cant believe it. Erik f***ing Karlsson. He plays for the f***ing Penguins baby.

Whether we win #6 or not, this is a great day.

Personally, I’m fine if we depart from basically every valuable futures asset we currently have if we can get a heavily retained Karlsson AND move out Petry and Granlund’s cap in full. There are some nice free agents still out there and the flexibility would be incredible for these last few years.

The flow of our d-corps is unreal right now between Tanger EK65 and Graves. Time for Sid and Geno to grow out their hair.
